What is Cloudflare Auto Minify?

The Cloudflare service, which we use for websites, includes a variety of features and options that can help make our site more secure and faster. With speed being such an important factor in the website visitor’s experience, it’s necessary to find strategies to improve loading times.

This is where code minification comes into play. This entails minifying our CSS, Javascript, and HTML to make our site load faster. To put it another way, certain characters and empty lines are eliminated from the code, making our page load faster. Furthermore, minifying files eliminates the need for file caching.

Although some WordPress plugins provide similar functionality, we can achieve it on our website using Cloudflare.
